Palit 4870 1GB

Aceman.au · Feb 11, 2009, 11:29 PM

Hey been testing my Palit 4870 1GB card on many games. But of course many games are bad at benchmarking so I just used Crysis :P

Core running at 775mHz it hits a max of 50fps (looking at ground) and averages 20fps when walking around destroying s***...

Anyone else got the Palit 4870? If so what fps are you getting?

What are your game settings you play with?

You can also try to run Vantage / 3dmark 06

Aceman.au · Feb 12, 2009, 12:17 AM

Ultra High Settings sorry forgot :P

Is your CPU only at 2.6ghz?

Aceman.au · Feb 12, 2009, 12:20 AM

2.4ghz

KBD · Feb 12, 2009, 12:31 AM

yeah, you need to up that CPU frequency, give it a nice bump to 3Ghz (or higher if possible)

Aceman.au · Feb 12, 2009, 12:32 AM

Kk... And leave voltage as it is???

Edit: Apparently my Mobo is good for OCing the CPU

thats gonna depend on what stepping your q6600 is. The older revisions made it to 3Ghz with no voltage increase, but the newer ones dont. If you dont want to raise it just take it as far as it goes without upping the voltage.

Dont know about that particular board, but generally Gigabyte P45 boards have been pretty good ocers.

Aceman.au · Feb 12, 2009, 12:39 AM

This Q6600 is the older version... Got it just after it came out...

HolyCow02 · Feb 12, 2009, 06:41 PM

yea the cpu is holding you back. oc that bad boy and you will get better fps.

Aceman.au · Feb 12, 2009, 11:35 PM

Kk ty for the help

J-Man · Feb 12, 2009, 11:39 PM

I had my B3 at stock voltages at 3GHz stable

. Try 3GHz first.

Kk... Is it true that when you OC you void your warranty?
